Briar Rose, a Children's Production
by Kurjian via NEohioPAL 26 May '16

26 May '16

Our RISING STARS Production of Briar Rose: The Tale of Sleeping Beauty will be on June 11th at 7pm and June 12th at 2:30pm at the Orrville Community Theater, 307 Hostetler Road Orrville. Our RISING STARS, ages 6-12, have been learning the ins & outs of the theater and working hard on this production! Briar Rose, a clever and charming adaptation of the classic fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty is a wild, comic romp. Despite warnings from her hysterical, hyper mother, Briar Rose touches the thorns of some roses given to her by that devious thirteenth fairy. Consequently, she and the rest of the royal family fall asleep for 100 years under the evil fairy’s curse. A hilarious parade of doomed princes fail again and again in the hissing, growling briar bushes (created by children from the audience) that protect the palace where the royal family sleeps. All these royal efforts are futile until a prince shows up with his side-splittingly funny bodyguard, the two-headed troll (played by two actors standing back-to-back). It’s ’back-to-back’ nonsense as the two heads drive the prince mad by finishing each other’s (and his) sentences, encouraging him to kiss Briar Rose. Did we forget to mention this prince has a serious kissing phobia?! You’ll love the clever dialogue, comical characters, lively stage action, great participation, and surprise twist.

CALLING ACTORS - Manhattan Project Meet & Greet Next Week!
by Manhattan Project via NEohioPAL 25 May '16

25 May '16

Between 1942 and 1945, J. Robert Oppenheimer gathered the most brilliant minds of the age at Los Alamos, New Mexico to create something awesome and terrible. The Manhattan Project - Cleveland Lab seeks to do the same for the Cleveland stage. Fresh New Faces in the Bunker Cleveland's showcase for never before seen plays has three new playwrights writing for us. We're thrilled to introduce Tim Collingwood, Monica Morgan, and Jacob Wiker. We're also happy to be joined by one of our favorite playwrights, Yulia Gray. We need brave actors to perform in these brave playwrights' awesome and terrible new plays! Join us at our Meet & Greet <http://facebook.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=24718b1d6d5f7c398165fdc7b…> at Mahall's <http://facebook.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=24718b1d6d5f7c398165fdc7b…> (13200 Madison Ave. <http://facebook.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=24718b1d6d5f7c398165fdc7b…>) on Wednesday, June 1 at 8:00pm. Performance <http://facebook.us8.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=24718b1d6d5f7c398165fdc7…> will be Wednesday, June 29! We hope to see you there. What exactly is The Manhattan Project - Cleveland Lab? The Manhattan Project is a low-stakes, nonthreatening place for actors and playwrights to meet and work together. Based on the Theatre Lab model taught at the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama and inspired by The Brooklyn Generator in New York, The Manhattan Project wants to introduce Cleveland actors and playwrights to each other by organizing a bi-monthly production of brand new 10-minute plays. Participating artists will meet early in the month and will be broken into teams, each with one playwright. The playwright will then be given a writing prompt to write a new 10-minute play based on the prompt and including all the team's actors. The rest of the evening the team members will get to know each other and get a feel for each other's skills and voices. The teams will reconvene later in the month to perform these plays for each other. These 10-minute plays are not an end in themselves. Through these small collaborations we hope to build relationships between the two most vulnerable artists in theatre; the actors who put themselves on stage and the playwrights who pour themselves onto the page. Perhaps these 10-minute plays will grow into longer works or maybe these collaborations will become partnerships on larger projects. If you'd like to participate, please RSVP at TrinityCrater(a)gmail.com or introduce yourself at out next event. *Some additional notes on the play lab:* - In the spirit of shoe-string theatre, these 10-minute plays should have a budget of $0.00. - Playwrights will be directing the plays, or an actor from the team can volunteer to do so. - It's up to each team to schedule rehearsals together. Based on experience, it shouldn't take more than 3-4 hours of rehearsal time to get these plays on their feet. - Playwrights are invited in advance of the Meet & Greet. - *Playwrights are invited based on participation in past Manhattan Project events, so please come to our events so we can get to know you!*
